1 about the mcbasic-gigabit mcbasic-gigabit is a low-cost, preconfigured, ieee 802.3 single-conversion media converter that converts 1000base-tx twisted pair to 1000base-sx multi-mode or 1000base-lx single-mode fiber. It is available with one rj-45 connector for the twisted pair port and an sc conne...

4 information to the fiber segment. If a media converter is not receiving a twisted pair link, tx linkloss disables the transmitter on the media converter's fiber port. The result is in a loss of the link on the device connected to the fiber port. Fiberalert (fa) fiberalert minimizes the problems as...

5 link fault pass-through (lfpt) link fault pass-through (lfpt) is a troubleshooting feature that combines tx and fx linkloss from both the local and remote mcbasic-gigabit modules. Lfpt is enabled by turning on both fx and tx linkloss on both modules. This feature allows either end of the conversio...

6 additional gigabit features preferred/forced mode in addition to master/slave modes, mcbasic-gigabit module also includes preferred/forced modes for master/slave negotiation. Preferred mode helps determine whether the module should act as a master or slave. Forced mode should typically only be use...

8 troubleshooting during installation, first test the fiber and twisted pair connections with all troubleshooting features disabled, then enable these features, if desired, just before final installation. This will reduce the features’ interference with testing. If using a high powered device (which...
